Jim Tavaré, a British actor who played Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, has been in a terrible accident that has left him with multiple injuries including a broken neck.

His wife Laura posted an update Tuesday on Jim's Facebook page and wrote:

"Jim has asked me to let you all know that he was involved in a serious car accident yesterday, a head on collision. He's currently in ICU intensive care. He has 15 broken ribs, fractures in both breastbones, a punctured lung, multiple breaks in his right leg, and a broken neck. He's had 2 blood transfusions so far and is about to go in for his first surgery."

She added:

"Please hold some good thoughts for him as he fights his way out of this."

A photo (below) of a badly injured Jim accompanied the post, although he was also seen giving a thumbs up. We can only hope that means he's feeling optimistic about the recovery process.
